If a nation has a comparative disadvantage in the production of some commodity: Group of answer choices it cannot gain from inte
vazorg [7]

Answer:

it can still gain from international trade in that commodity, by getting it at a lower opportunity cost than if it produced it domestically.

Explanation:

A country has comparative disadvantage in production if it produces at a higher opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

The country with a  comparative disadvantage can gain from trade by trading the good with a country that has  comparative advantage in the production of that good. i.e. the country produces at a lower opportunity cost

For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.  

for country A,  

opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2

for country B,  

opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2

Country B has a comparative disadvantage in the production of beans and country A has a comparative disadvantage in the production of rice

Country B should buy beans from A and A should buy rice from B

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

A. $45

B. $80

C. $8,167

Explanation:

(a) Calculation to determine the firm's cash conversion cycle

Cash conversion cycle=$65 +$15 – $35

Cash conversion cycle=$45

Therefore the firm's cash conversion cycle is $45

(b) Calculation to determine the firm's operating cycle

Operating cycle =$65 +$15

Operating cycle=$80

Therefore the firm's operating cycle is $80

(c) Calculation to determine the daily expenditure and the firm's annual savings if the operating cycle is reduced by 15 days

First step is to calculate the Daily expenditure

Daily expenditure =$1,960,000/360

Daily expenditure=$5,444.44

Now let determine the Annual savings

Annual savings =$5,444.44 *15*0.10

Annual savings=$8,167

Therefore the daily expenditure and the firm's annual savings if the operating cycle is reduced by 15 days will be $8,167

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Holding period return = 14.49%, Standard Deviation = 11.08 approx

Explanation:

Eco Scenario    Dividend     Stock Price  HPR    Prob     Expected HPR

Boom                         3                 60         26        0.33        8.58

Normal                       1.2               58        18.4       0.33       6.072

Recession                  0.75            49        (0.5)      0.33      <u> (0.165)</u>

              Expected HPR                                                       14.49%

<u>Calculation Of Standard Deviation</u>

                                      (A)                     (B)           (A) - (B)  

P_{1}          P_{0}       D_{1}       Given return   Exp return       d          p           p.d^{2}

60        50      3            26                     14.49         11.51       0.33      43.718    

58        50      1.2          18.4                   14.49         3.91       0.33      5.045

49        50      0.75      (0.5)                    14.49        14.99     0.33      <u> 74.15</u>

                                                                                         Total p.d^{2} =  122.91

wherein, d = deviation

               p = probability

               Standard Deviation = \sqrt{Total\ p.d^{2} }  = \sqrt{122.91} = 11.08  

<u></u>

<u>Working Note</u>:

Holding period return = \frac{P_{1}\ -\ P_{0} \ +\ D_{1}  }{P_{0} }

Boom = \frac{60\ -\ 50 \ +\ 3  }{50 }   = 26%

Similarly, for normal = \frac{58\ -\ 50 \ +\ 1.2  }{50 }  = 18.4%

Recession = \frac{49\ -\ 50 \ +\ 0.75  }{50}  = (0.5)%

figure in bracket indicates negative return
